Even fans unfamiliar with the concept of SpaceGodzilla can’t deny the appeal of the premise. Written and drawn by Matt Frank, colored by Gonçalo Lopes, and designed and lettered by Nathan Widick, IDW Publishing’s Godzilla Rivals: Vs. SpaceGodzilla is a roaring one-shot that takes the indomitable and phenomenal kaiju to the cosmos. The creatives tell the story in an innovative way that is quite unlike other books on the shelf right now.The one-shot tells the tale of an alien planet whose inhabitants pray to a sacred crystal. They believe the quartz provides and that they must put their faith in it. Much like any other world, though, when religion and government meet, there is bound to be trouble. This changes after a cult leader decides to use the powerful quartz to summon the god known as the Crystal King. What the leader unleashes, however, is the menacing and almighty SpaceGodzilla.Operating like a futuristic merger of hieroglyphics and Bushman paintings, the images tell the full story, as there are lengthy periods where there is no text on the page. With Frank on art duties, as well, the creative mastermind hits the sweet spot between metaphorical depictions and literal imagery in a highly detailed one-shot that ushers in an entirely new world to get lost in. Since this is a book about SpaceGodzilla, Frank doesn’t skim on the action scenes, laying down epic moments that allow the monster to roar and wreak total havoc.
